SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

Special precautions related to each target species:

Efficacy has not been established in the presence of maternal antibodies.

Special precautions for use in animals:

Only healthy animals should be vaccinated.

Vaccinated calves may excrete BRSV and PI3V vaccination strains for up to 6 days after vaccination.

Therefore, spreading the vaccination virus from vaccinated to unvaccinated calves cannot be excluded, but without inducing clinical symptoms of the disease. In laboratory studies, excretion of BRSV and PI3V was observed within 6 days vaccination with a after single dose containing the maximum amount of the virus. Animals should be vaccinated at least 10 days before the critical periods of stress or high risk of infection such as regrouping or transport of animals, or early in autumn. Vaccinating all calves in the breed is recommended to achieve optimum results.

Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals:

In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or the label to the physician.
